In this paper we discuss a new type of query in Spatial Databases, called the Trip Planning Query (TPQ). Given a set of points of interest P in space, where each point belongs to ...
A dynamic geometric data stream consists of a sequence of m insert/delete operations of points from the discrete space {1, . . . , ∆}d [26]. We develop streaming (1 + )-approxim...
Decentralized partially observable Markov decision processes (DEC-POMDPs) form a general framework for planning for groups of cooperating agents that inhabit a stochastic and part...

Background: The estimation of the difference between two evolutionary distances within a triplet of homologs is a common operation that is used for example to determine which of t...

A new quasi-Newton scheme for updating a low rank positive semi-definite Hessian approximation is described, primarily for use in sequential quadratic programming methods for non...
